Landscape broadcasts weren’t the only new addition to Periscope in the new update, mind.

For instance, there’s now an indicator beneath the title of a broadcast to explain who’s shared a stream with you.

There are also a number of new accessibility features that should make it easier for visually impaired Periscopers to use the iOS app.

Additionally, when you begin a private broadcast, you can now choose from a list of mutual followers – note: only in the Android version.

Periscope’s creators say this list process is a “more natural selection” of people who you’re likely to broadcast to.

There’s also a ‘select all’ option for quickly selecting all of your mutual followers. That’s so you can share a stream with all of your friends, but not the whole world.
